内容説明

This book offers information on the President's early education, professional career, military service or political service prior to the presidency. Thomas Jefferson of Virginia was the first president to be inaugurated in Washington, D.C. He wrote two of the most important documents in the history of the U.S.: The Declaration of Independence and the basis for the first amendment to the Constitution, which guarantees freedom of religion and worship. Although he was not a great public speaker, his eloquent and powerful words carried a strong, but silent voice. He was a lover of books and his book collection, (over 6,000 books)helped to start the Library of Congress. He served for forty years in many different aspects.
